Matured in 300 liter French and American (20%) oak barrels for 15 months. A very attractive red berry and vanillin nose with aromas of spice accompanied by a full-bodied and well-balanced palate. This wine is a huge mouthfull of Pinotage fruit which slides over the palate with finesse and opulence. Drink now and over the next 5 to 8 years.

Ageing Potential

Mature for another 5 to 8 years.
